Madan Krishna and Hari Bamsha against animal sacrifice
2009-11-14 23:05:00 The issue of animal sacrifice in Gadhimai mela is getting more attention as the mela date (Nov 22) is coming closer. First, animal right groups and the Buddha boy raised concern on half-a-million animals being killed in the mela. Now, others are following the quest to stop the inhuman act in the name of ...
Animal sacrifice and Gadhimai Mela
2009-11-10 07:38:00 We have a weird tradition?killing animals in the name of God. I think, it is more of an excuse to eat meat than worshiping ? in the time when non-vegetarian dishes weren?t so common. Isn?t it time to accept the reality that gods don’t eat meat? In the eve of notorious Gadhimai Mela, a two ...
A Warrior of Sacrifice May Be about To Get His Due
2009-09-18 14:05:00 For the wagerers among our readership, a real good bet for the lone available forward spot on the Capitals' roster this season is winger Quintin Laing. You could say that he's paid his dues with the organization -- and then some. A 4th round draft pick of Detroit in 1997, Laing broke into pro hockey with the Jackson Bandits of the ECHL in 2000, and it's been mostly bus rides for him ever since. But that's hardly a measure of his present value to the Capitals' organization. Tomas Fleischman's leg injury will briefly open a second roster spot up front, but the opening created by Donald Brashear's departure is for the entire season. That is the one Laing is targeting. Laing first distinguished himself in the Capitals' organization in the 2007 Calder Cup finals with Hershey. It was abundantly clear after game 4 -- a 6-2 win by Hamilton -- that the Cup would be dominated, and won, by Carey Price's remarkable netminding. After game 4 Laing was left with a royall...

The Sacrifice of Admetus
2008-06-05 19:42:00 How the evolution of altruism reveals our noblest qualitiesHeracles battles Death for generosity's sake* This piece has been included in the 2007 Open Laboratory: The Best Science Writing on Blogs. For information on how to purchase or download a copy click here.Whereas great scientific theories stand the test of time when they accurately predict the natural world through repeated empirical trials, great literature transcends the ages when it speaks to universal qualities of human experience. Such inspirational works can also, without the authors realizing at the time, reveal the sublime beauty and tragedy of our evolutionary drama. Few classical authors have tapped into this zeitgeist of biological experience as the Greek tragedian Euripides. The conflict between male and female reproductive strategy and the horrific choice of maternal infanticide is powerfully presented in the story of Medea (which waited some 2,400 years before being elucidated as an adaptive strategy in pri...

I fully deserve any curses that come from the love of sleep. So yeah, I did get up at noon today. Bren fell asleep on the couch last night while we were watching The Devil Wears Prada and since she had taken her contacts out, I left her sleeping on the couch when I went to bed at about 3:00 a.m. It was heart-wrenching, but I managed to pull around fifty unwanted, unneeded, unloved...I manged to pull fifty books off my shelves that I could part with without becoming emotionally distraght. My books had been sitting patiently, stacked in a laundry basket at the end of my bed for over a week, so Rick finally boxed them up and dropped them off at the Literacy Council when he went into town this afternoon. Amazingly enough Rick only joked once that I hadn’t even made a small dent in my collection by sacrificing f...

A Christian Holy Week Message of Sacrifice and Renewal (with songs for refl
2008-03-20 03:51:00 During this time the Christian world is celebrating the Holy Week which depicts the passion of Jesus Christ more than 2,000 years ago. Christ had helped many people, cured the sick and brought a message of hope and salvation. Despite these positive messages and acts, He was cursed, tortured and crucified to death. What is His fault? Most probably because He is a threat. A threat to established religion and order of that time.More than that historical contest, the Holy Week reminds not only Christians but all of us to look into what He had done in realistic and humane concept. Christ's suffering be it to the believer and the non-believer reminds us of the very nature every human has. His innate nature to goodness and his ability to sacrifice and think of the good of his fellowmen.In a world beset by war, famine, hunger, climate change and many other problems, the need to sacrifice and to do something more than just oneself is an imminent need. Our lives should no longer be c...

Morales Will Sacrifice His Health, For One More Chance At Glory
2008-03-18 13:17:00 Erik Morales is currently the director of parks and recreation in Tijuana, Mexico. He claims the job is not about the money, it makes him happy and keeps his mind occupied. The Big news is, Morales is planning a major fight in late 2009 or early 2010. This is dangerous but it brings to our attention the problem stars have with letting go, always wanting one more shot at glory. The worrying thing is, Morales isn't exactly healthy. Key Points :- After loosing to Diaz in August 2007, Morales explained he was hearing bells ringing in his head. Doctors were concerned.- Even though Morales is a champion and a legend of the sport. He has lost his last 4 fights. And he intends on fighting a big name in his comeback bout, realistically he has little chance of winning.- This will put pressure on boxing organizations. Morales should not be sanctioned to fight again, because of the chance of sustaining a serious head injury. Although it is unlikely this will happen, as offending a legend of th...

He sunk to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Mary promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Jim out. When the medical director became aware of Mary's heroic act he immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as he now considered her to be mentally stable. When he went to tell Mary the news he said, "Mary, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged because since you were able to jump in and save the life of another patient, I think you've regained your senses. The bad news is, Jim, the patient you saved, hung himself with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom. I am so sorry, but he's dead." Mary replied, "He didn't hang himself, I put him there to dry." --- ---<--{(@ Love Stories from a mental hospital... ...

The Ultimate Sacrifice: US Army war soldiers are increasingly attempting or
2008-02-01 03:44:00 Our national heroes are not getting the necessary mental health care and support to withstand the pressures of the war in Iraq. I find this indefensible. Multiple new efforts aimed at stemming suicides in the Army are falling short of their goal: The service anticipates another jump in the annual number of soldiers who killed themselves or tried to, including in the Iraq and Afghanistan war zones. As many as 121 soldiers committed suicide in 2007, an increase of some 20 percent over 2006, according to preliminary figures released on January 31st.The number who tried to commit suicide or injured themselves for some other reason jumped six-fold in the last several years - from 350 in 2002 to about 2,100 incidents last year. Officials said an unknown portion of that increase was likely due to use of a new electronic tracking system that is more thorough in capturing health data than the previous system.The Army offered up a weak excuse: ""We have been perturbed by the rise despite a...
